Aleksey Rico, whose real name is Aleksey Soloviev, is a freelance illustrator based in Izhevsk, Russian Federation. He focuses on vector illustration and poster artwork. His work often appears in gig posters, movie posters, music covers, and t-shirt graphics.
Rico spends a lot of time working with smooth vector lines and bold shapes. Many of his posters use strong compositions where characters, objects, and typography sit together in a clear structure. His illustrations usually look simple at first glance, yet the details in lines and shadows make the artwork stand out.
Soviet Poster Influence and Comic Style
A big part of Rico’s inspiration comes from old Soviet propaganda posters. Those posters used clear shapes, limited colors, and strong light and shadow to guide the viewer’s attention. Rico follows a similar approach.
His color choices often include reds, yellows, dark blues, and deep shadows. The lighting helps create drama in the scene while the shapes keep the design readable. Comic art also plays a role in his style. Characters in his posters feel expressive and active, which works well for music and event posters.
